Thousands of supporters of
both sides in the Scottish refer-
endum debate have taken to the
streets on the final weekend
before the vote. On Thursday
voters in Scotland will go to the
polls to answer the Yes/No ques-
tion: "Should Scotland be an
independent country?"
The pro-independence Yes
Scotland campaign claimed yes-
terday would be the "biggest day
of national campaigning" Scot-
land has ever seen. The Better
Together campaign claimed there
would be "a thousand events all
across Scotland today."
Supporters of both sides argued
that the momentum was with
them.
The campaigning followed
interventions in the debate by
businesses raising concerns about
independence, which "Yes" cam-
paigners claimed was "orches-
trated" by the UK government.
Scotland s Deputy First Min-
ister, Nicola Sturgeon, said: "The
Yes campaign has been carried
along by a flourishing of self-con-
fidence among people in Scotland.
That momentum is still growing
and will soon become unstop-
pable, as people reject the Down-
ing Street-orchestrated campaign
to talk Scotland down."
Better Together published a new
poll yesterday suggesting 53.5 per
cent opposed independence and
46.5 per cent backed it, when
undecided voters were excluded.
The telephone poll, commissioned
by Better Together from pollsters
Survation, reached 1,044 respon-
dents, with an effective sample
size of 927. Conducted September
10 to 12, it used a different
methodology from previous Sur-
vation polls.
Better Together campaign
director Blair McDougall said:
"This poll suggests that No are
in the lead but that the race is far
from over. No-one can afford a
protest vote. Any one of us could
cast the vote that makes the dif-
ference between the UK staying
together or breaking apart."
Responding to the poll, a Yes
Scotland spokesperson said:
"There is everything to play for,
and this will spur on everybody
who wants and is working hard
for a Yes to redouble their efforts.
A Yes vote is our one opportunity
to achieve job-creating powers,
protect our NHS from the dam-
aging impact of Westminster pri-
vatisation and cuts, and ensure
that never again do we get Tory
governments imposed on Scotland
that we have roundly rejected."
Rising retail costs?
Meanwhile, the bosses of three
retail groups have put their names
to a letter in the Daily Record, in
which they claimed their costs
would rise in an independent
Scotland and they would have to
take "the difficult decision"
whether or not to pass those on
to consumers.
The letter, signed by the heads
of Marks and Spencer, B&Q
owner Kingfisher and Timpsons,
read: "Within our group there is
first-hand experience of trading
across national borders---in
France, Ireland and across the
world.
"Our experience is that it
always leads to more red tape and
higher costs."
In a separate open letter, the
heads of several telecommunica-
tions groups said they would have
to modify their networks, possibly
incurring increased costs if Scot-
land voted for independence.
However, Mohammed Ramzan,
the chairman of cash and carry
business United Wholesale Gro-
cers and a "Yes" supporter, said:
"Every single company fights for
market share---they can t afford
to raise prices because they have
to compete to retain their market
share and to grow."
Great Depression---or
scaremongering?
In other developments,
Deutsche Bank s Mr Folkerts-Lan-
dau said it was "incomprehensi-
ble" that Scotland was even con-
templating withdrawal from the
UK. The chief economist com-
pared a potential "Yes" vote to
the mistakes which led to the
Great Depression of the 1930s.
"A Yes vote for Scottish inde-
pendence on Thursday would go
down in history as a political and
economic mistake as large as
Winston Churchill s decision in
1925 to return the pound to the
Gold Standard or the failure of
the Federal Reserve to provide
sufficient liquidity to the US
banking system, which we now
know brought on the Great
Depression in the US," he said.
However, the Scottish govern-
ment accused Mr Folkerts-Landau
of failing to take into account
Scotland s "strong fiscal position."
And a former managing director
of Deutsche Bank Scotland, Ian
Blackford, dismissed the warning
as "scaremongering." (BBC)
